The Best Care For Your Best Friend!

Pet care experience

If any of your plans for 2024 require the need for a pet sitter, I would be happy to take care of your pets. I promise that they will be well cared for - I will treat your pets like they are my own. I'm a mature, responsible, and experienced lifelong pet owner & long time animal shelter volunteer who will provide your pets with food & fresh water, administer medication to pets according to your instructions, clean out litter boxes, cages, & aquariums, and exercise/walk your pets as needed. I've had pets all my life and love them all - dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, birds - you name it. And if you're anything like me, your pets are like children to you. My pets needs come before my own, and always will. I currently have 2 cats. All have been adopted from a shelter. I also have a small turtle. I have been volunteering at my local animal shelter for over 5 years and have gained valuable experience not only in animal behavior and body language, but how to safely and properly supervise all types of pets, recognizing if they become fearful, stressed, anxious, or frustrated. I am able to react accordingly and help calm and comfort them. I look forward to hearing from you and caring for your pets!

Phenomenal job by Kathy! She checked in on our 2 cats while we were on vacation. She was extremely communicative and replied almost instantly to every message. Will book again in the future!

Kathy did a great job taking care of our 17 year old cat Susie while we were gone. It was the first time we left Susie with anyone and we were a little nervous about our trip, but Kathy was wonderful and we received photos and notes from all of her visits. We knew that Susie was in good hands. We will definitely use Kathy again!

Kathy was wonderful with my cat. He is a shy guy, and stayed under the bed for a few days. Kathy patiently kept trying, and soon he was asking her for grooming and play time. I would give her my recommendation gladly.

Information Kathy B. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know if a dog is reactive to other animals, whether it be another dog, or if they are distracted by lizards/squirrels/rabbits while out walking. Your dog MUST be housebroken if boarding with me!

A typical day

I let your pet set the tone. If your dog loves to walk, run, or play then that's what we'll do. If your dog is older or a couch potato, I've got no problem relaxing with them, just hanging out and watching TV. I am also a pet photographer, so if you would like portraits done please let me know!
